It's bad teammates, and by a lot.
Cool stuff, I'll start using "ecocide" in the wild. Or rather, on concrete.
You entertained me, because of the context. If you were able to draw it and contextualize it maybe setting it in a well known fictional universe, mixing it with themes of the wonder of a coming of age, the machination of the industry, the generational gap and a sense of rythm in the way the narration is paced and represented, I would probably find it brilliant.
It is not the only point when it comes to adopting technologies, when it comes to maximizing privacy, yes maximizing privacy is tautologically the only point.
I think you are wrong is all I can realistically come up with.
You don't need a punchline and an author has no duty. I would also argue plenty of stuff from Monty Python (and we are referencing ancient classical stuff by the way) have no punchline and make the lack of a punchline part of the comical experience.
Just look at this thing, there's a stern father reprimending Charlie saying "IT IS WONDERFUL AND YOU ARE GOING". Granpa on the brick of death is staring into the void filled with the dream of visiting the turnip factory!
You must laugh GODDAMNIT!
Because it makes the point for a more solid technology as far as privacy is concerned?
Have you ever seen like anything from Monty Python? i'm genuinely curious I know comedy is, obviously, subjective, but this comic has a distinctive quality and it's hard for me to see it labeled as "shitty".
You are not thinking with portals.
Sure, but I think this is not Yoko Ono.
It's a funny subversion, personally it tickle my brain to recast everything I know about Charlie and the Chocolate factory in a turnip twist with a Wanky being as flamboyant as always and the kids being WAY less into it. i like to picture the parent being there and being enamored with it.
It says a lot about society.
2 years ago this investigation into its working was released (abusive working conditions), I think it may be relevant...
